June White Party


I have joined Etsy Cottage Style this month of
June for color white. White is my other favorite
color next to pink and have many things in white.
Here are just a few of my white's, hope you enjoy them.

Angel in bedroom, I have draped this lace over a cabinet with a tall mirror, then a gardenia from my garden, my white home, where we have lived for 50 years and my vintage doll





This is a view of my patio with white furniture
and ready for tea.

Have a terrific day...I leave you with this poem
from Mattie Stepanek an award winning poet at the age of 11
The sky is such a perfect blue
It must have been painted there.
Even the clouds bear witness
To the stroke of an artist's brush.
This just proves that God is perfect
At many professions. February 2000

    You can grow gardenias - I'm so envious!
    The lovely, mature trees surrounding your home must have been just babies when you moved in 50 years ago....
